      We obtain the asymptotic distribution of ModifyingAbove normal upper Lamda With Ì‚ Subscript i i comma n. A similar argument can be made for the off‐diagonals of normal upper Lamda. Under the conditions of Theorem 1,

      3.4 Confidence Regions for Means

      Suppose that upper A Subscript n is an estimate of the limiting Monte Carlo variance–covariance matrix, normal upper Lamda for IID sampling, and upper Sigma for MCMC sampling. Let chi Subscript 1 minus alpha comma p Superscript 2 be the left-parenthesis 1 minus alpha right-parenthesis‐quantile of a chi Subscript p Superscript 2 distribution. The CLT yields a large‐sample confidence region around ModifyingAbove theta With Ì‚ Subscript h as

upper C Subscript alpha Superscript upper E Baseline left-parenthesis ModifyingAbove theta With Ì‚ Subscript h Baseline right-parenthesis equals StartSet theta element-of double-struck upper R Superscript p Baseline colon n left-parenthesis theta Subscript n Baseline minus theta right-parenthesis Superscript upper T Baseline upper A Subscript n Superscript negative 1 Baseline left-parenthesis theta Subscript n Baseline minus theta right-parenthesis less-than chi Subscript 1 minus alpha comma p Superscript 2 Baseline EndSet

      Let StartAbsoluteValue dot EndAbsoluteValue denote the determinant. The volume of this ellipsoidal confidence region, which depends on p, alpha, and StartAbsoluteValue upper A Subscript n Baseline EndAbsoluteValue, is given by
